    Abstract: A method for fabricating optical MEMS (optical Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems or Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MOEMS)) is described. The basic process involves deposition and patterning of a sacrificial spacer layer and a combined moulding and photolithography step.
    The method described allows the fabrication of micromechanical elements incorporating micro-optical structures such as lenses (diffractive or refractive), gratings (for polarisers or resonant filters), waveguides or other micro-optical relief structures fabricated by UV-curing replication processes.

    Abstract: A method of fine-pattern formation in which in forming a pattern, a fine pattern formed in a mold can be transferred to a pattering material in a short time at a low temperature and low pressure and, after the transfer of the fine pattern to the patterning material, the fine pattern formed in the patterning material does not readily deform. The method for fine-pattern formation comprises: a first step in which a mold having a fine structure with recesses/protrusions is pressed against a pattering material comprising a polysilane; a second step in which the patterning material is irradiated with ultraviolet to photooxidize the patterning material; a third in which the pressing of the mold against the patterning material is relieved and the mold is drawn from the pattering material; and a fourth step in which that surface of the patterning material to which the fine pattern has been transferred is irradiated with an oxygen plasma to oxidize the surface.

    Abstract: The present invention includes a composition and a method for forming a pattern on a substrate with the composition by forming a cross-linked polymer from the composition upon exposing the same to radiation. To that end, in one embodiment of the present invention the composition includes a non-silicon-containing acrylate component, and an initiator component combined with said non-silicon-containing acrylate to provide a viscosity no greater than 5 cps. The initiator component is responsive to radiation to initiate a free radical reaction and cause the non-silicon containing acrylate component to polymerize and cross-link. One embodiment of the non-silicon-containing acrylate component includes ethylene glycol diacrylate. The method includes depositing the composition to function as a planarization layer. Thereafter, a layer of polymerizable material into which a pattern is to be recorded is deposited.
